They are defined in <sys/stat.h>. I keep forgetting that while many systems implicitly include <sys/stat.h> as part of <fcntl.h> (which POSIX allows but not requires), newer Linux is striving to be more namespace-clean. > Output on ext4: Compliant. > Output on ntfs-3G 5 out of 9 combinations passed.

Do you have a full name that you'd like to be credited by in THANKS, or do you desire to remain hidden behind your pseudonym? Thanks again for helping us track down and work around this bug. - -- Don't work too hard, make some time for fun as well!
